You won't go hungry at this family-run trattoria. The Libreri family's proud of their huge portions of old-world family recipes (another plus: the prices are easy on your pocket.) Bored with chicken parmesan? There are plenty of innovative chicken and veal preparations to choose from. The pasta boscaiola, with a rich tomato-cream sauce, hearty mushrooms, and spicy sausage, is a house favorite. And here's a surprise for a pasta palace: There's a gluten-free menu that's as big, if not bigger, than the regular one. At Da Luciano, the customer is king: Not only do pictures of frequent patrons dot the walls, but daily specials are often based upon the requests of regulars. Shades of yellow set off the intimate-yet-modest dining room and service is charming.
